	The [[campaign setting]]s of the [[Dungeons & Dragons]] games (and spin-offs, like [[Pathfinder]]) are generally set on the "Prime Material Plane", which is at the center of the universe. The Prime is surrounded by other planes, which almost always include Elemental Planes corresponding to the classical [[element]]s and often includes more, such as the Positive and Negative Energy Planes, planes belonging to various gods, and the afterlives of particular [[alignment]]s. [[Planescape]] probably has the most planes out of any setting.

	~~For the established~~ D&D ~~cosmologies~~, ~~see the~~ [[Great Wheel]] and [[World Axis]] ~~pages~~.		There have been multiple different cosmologies, or [[multiverse]]s, created for D&D over the years, which are discussed in more detail on their own pages:
			* The [[Great Wheel]] is the oldest D&D cosmology, originating in [[Advanced Dungeons & Dragons]] and developed by the [[Planescape]] setting. It is considered the "iconic" multiverse.
			* The [[World Tree]] is a cosmology unique to the [[Forgotten Realms]] setting.
			* The [[World Axis]] is a cosmology invented for [[Dungeons & Dragons 4th Edition]], and is synonymous with the [[Nentir Vale]] setting.
			* The [[Great Beyond]] is the cosmology [[Pathfinder]] created for its [[Golarion]] setting, and in many ways represents a blending point of the Great Wheel and World Axis.

	Mathematically speaking, a '''plane''' is a two-dimensional space -- infinitely broad and wide, with zero thickness.		Mathematically speaking, a '''plane''' is a two-dimensional space -- infinitely broad and wide, with zero thickness. If you can't quite get your head around that go read [[Flatland]] which uniquely takes place on a literal mathematical 2d plane.

	In traditional games, especially those set in fantasy worlds, the term is applied to what might more rigorously be described as (without having to go learn elementally string theory to explain) separate and parallel realms of existence, like sheets of paper (which are approximately planes) stacked on top of each other. Crossing from one plane to another is almost always possible (why put them in a setting if the [[PC]]s can't get to them?), although it is more difficult in some settings than others. Planes may correspond to one another (i.e. plane-shifting and moving ten kilometers to the east will get you to the same place as if you had moved ten kilometers east and then plane-shifted),this is in essences how Warp drives in 40k work to get around the light speed barrier, but this is not necessarily the case, especially once the planes get really weird. Sufficiently powerful characters may be able to create planes or sub-planes (often called "demi-planes") on their own.
